Welcome, oh valiant adventurers, to a domain where the power of your voice is the key to your survival! Introducing Voice Quest, a 3D platformer experience that defies the norms and redefines interaction with your character.

In this quirky, whimsical realm, you don't simply control the character; you become Shadow Man. Your voice is your ally, guiding you through a world fraught with challenges and rib-tickling humor. Command your movements with the power of speech, from a gentle walk to a swift run, a daring jump, or even a moment of silence to regroup. Direct your path by aiming your gaze, using either your trusty mouse or controller.

Your journey will be riddled with delectable bananas to collect and nefarious strawberry monsters to dodge. These strawberries are not your ordinary garden-variety pests; they are the evil incarnate, determined to halt your progress. Each level scales in complexity, challenging your dexterity and strategic thinking, all while a giant skull delivers a constant stream of wisecracks at your expense.

The dynamic music score serves as the heartbeat of the game, adapting to your progression through each level and syncing in harmony with the in-game time. As you ascend through the levels, so does the rhythm of your adventure, creating an immersive experience that keeps you on your toes (and your vocal cords)!

But fear not, dear players, for this is not a tale of solitary heroism. Voice Quest hosts a worldwide leaderboard showcasing players who dare to defy the odds. Compete for the highest honors in multiple categories, including speed records, banana collections, least deaths, and for those who truly excel, a special category for the fastest times with the most bananas and least deaths.

The on-screen display serves as your personal scribe, keeping you apprised of your death count, banana haul, and current time. Future updates promise to add even more features to the OSD, including your personal best times and the reigning world records.

Voice Quest is not just a game; it's a platformer experience that pushes the boundaries of interactive gameplay. It's a symphony of voices, humor, and fun, where every shout, whisper, and laugh brings you one step closer to becoming the ultimate Shadow Man!

Truly, it's as simple as saying into your microphone (whichever is your windows system default microphone) either "jump", "run", "walk", or "stop". Otherwise, you steer the Shadow Man with either your mouse or gamepad.

Full controller support coming soon but does work in game perfectly. Run's great on the Steam Deck. Try your hardest to enunciate and - if possible - use your best American accent.
